Ipod Shuffle not working after trying all possible supports from Apple!!!!!

I have an ipod shuffle and it has been working fine. It turns on and off and I can play music. Now all of a sudden I cannot connect my shuffle to my labtop through its usb port. It won't recognize it at all, it cannot be charged and I cant even attempt to put new songs on it. I am very angry with apple's service. I tried all things possible on their site and have continually requested repair service. I constantly get an unrecognized serial number every single time! I have copied it word for word and number for number over and over and over again. I can't even get one on one chat with a representative online because you guys don't recognize a serial number! This is just one big hassle and I don't feel like your service is very helpful at all. I love the Ipod and all it's accessories and other models but this is ridiculous. I even purchased the usb shuffle dock to try and see if it was my computer but it isn't. The dock doesnt recognize my shuffle either. I would appreciate it if Apple would just give me some kind of recognition and service me as a consumer please. I don't want to fill out some fax forms I don't even have a fax machine. Please help me figure out what's wrong or send me the things I need to send my shuffle in for repair thank you.

Just a note, the limited warranty on the Ipod Shuffle is 1 year. So when I got invalid serial number when I entered the s/n I knew something was wrong. What I discovered was that the character that I thought was a zero was actually a "D" and the "5" was actually an "S". Once I entered the correct serial number the website told me how much time I have left under the warranty. They even knew the approximate date that I purchased it - even though I didn't register it. So use a magnifying glass, a younger set of eyes, whatever to make sure you're entering the correct S/N. Now I just have to figure out HOW to return it. Good Luck!

  • B110a black in still not working after trying all recommended solutions

    Hi there
    Black ink still not working after spending many hours trying to sort. I've cleaned the printhead carefull several times (is immaculate now) and run the system clean up and alignment functions several many times too. I've cleaned the metal connecting points. I wiggled things carefully. I've attempted printing multiple pages in b/w in case it was going to take a while to get the ink flowing again. I've replaced one (expensive) new black cartridge with another brand new (expensive) cartridge and still nothing. This machine is probably out of warranty but seriously not very old. It really ought to be working okay. We use it regularly a little bit every week. Any ideas?

    The document here has troubleshooting steps that may help resolve black not printing on your Photosmart b110a.  Be sure to check the vents as shown in solution six, step three.  If the above does not resolve the problem the post here may help.

  • Ipod Shuffle not working after upgrade to iTunes 7.02

    I upgrade to iTunes 7.02 after it prompted me so many times. My Ipod shuffle has 512MB, somehow iTunes 7.02 format it as 34GB, yes, 34GB!! I wouldn't mind it so much if it still works, but it doesn't.
    What I have tried so far, I uninstall 7.02 and put back 6.05, still it shows 34GB. It does recognize the Ipod shuffle and allows me to put songs in it, except they don't play.
    I download the Ipod shuffle reset utility, but it doesn't recognize the IPod. I am really bumped on this one, nothing to listen to on my long commute.

    Hey man... I know what, you were right! I did some more research and ended up looking for any answaers on the Digidesign site. I downloaded the latest version of CoreAudio for my plataform (ProTools TDM Mix Plus with OS X 10.3.9) which is CoreAudio 6.9 and it seems to have solved all of my problems! At least iTunes and QT are opening again and seem to be working good so far. PT also seems to be runing with no problems!! Thanks again for the hint!

  • HT1414 Ipod Mini not working after trying to update to IOS7

    Team Apple....HELP!
    I recently tried to in tall the new IOS 7 on my Mini Ipad....but I get the connect to Itunes with USB cable on the screen. 
    I've intalled the latest updates to the OS on my MAC Laptop and the latest version of Itunes.
    Itunes saw a system that needed to be restore and took two hours to down load something (sorry, can't recall).  After the down load, I'm still stuck with the conect to Ituense with USB cable on the screen.
    Ok, I've tried all the below intsrutction from these links, with no success:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
    G

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • APPLE TV YOUTUBE IS NOT WORKING MANY POST BUT NO SUPPORT FROM APPLE STAFF

    In this forum and in many forums I have read posts regarding YouTube is not working.
    In my situation I have updated to the latest version of apple tv (2.3). My Leopard is up to date / itunes also.
    I am sharing internet connection in imac using Airport. Eveything works but YouTube does not work.
    I can log in with my YouTube username (this shows it can successfully connects and gets reponse from the server), BUT I can not view featured/most viewed etc. I only see spinning apple thing.
    I have been useing apple tv for 3 days and firts date YouTube worked. Also yesterday I did restart atv with menu + - for 6 seconds and relogged in to itunes and youtube worked again. I watched the whole night. I did also made some testing like rebooting atv again / turning of internet sharing and so on, magically it was working. I did get a good night sleep and in the morning when I tried again boom YouTube was broken again.
    My only request from apple tv tech guys to admit there is a problem with YouTube in Apple TV so we can stop trying to make it work.

    Well I kind of never give up and still trying.
    Today I figured out something, I was looged in to You Tube Account from apple tv. I clicked on History (on Youtube/History) and I could view the movies. When I click on one it start stream and downloads it. So there is no connection issue due to my hardware router etc. The only places I get the spinning wheel is when I try to use Youtube/Feature/Most Viewed/Top Rated/Search
    There is definitively connection to the server but why I can't navigate the above links mentioned.
    I would really appreciate any suggestions it does not matter if you know a fix or not but each feedback would help me solve this issue.

  • Why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs?

    I had my iPod Shuffle for about a month now and it's already causing me trouble.
    I would play a couple of songs, but when I go to change it, it stops working. I turn it off and on again only to have it take me back to where I started off at (e.g. Let's say I have 100 songs, I start at 50 and I get to 55 before it shuts off. When I turn it back on, it starts at 50 all over again). This process would happen over and over again with seemingly no end.
    So my question is, why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs and how can I fix it?
    I already tried using the iTunes troubleshooting guide, but nothing worked.
    Details -
    4th Generation
    I only use it at the gym or when I'm running
    I've only used the Apple products that came with it so far
           (e.g. charger, headphones, etc.)
    881 MB are still left
    Music stops randomly, no common number or pattern

    I had the same problem, I purchased a new ipod shuffle, followed the instructions but it would stop after a few songs and I would have to shut it off, wait and turn it back on and it would go back to the same song and then once again, after a few songs it would shut off. I returned the ipod and got another one, same thing happened. This is how I resolved the issue.
    1. open itunes, make sure its up to date, then connect your shuffle to your pc
    2.on the left of the itunes window, select your ipod, then at the top select music then check the sync box and select "selected playlists"
    3.then go back and click on your ipod on the left, a message will appear just select apply
    all of your music should be emptied from your ipod.
    4.delete all of your playlists on the left, this will not delete anything from your library. Delete the "purchased" playlist under itunes store on the left as well, once again this will not delete anything from your library
    5.There should be an arrow just in front of your ipod, click on this arrow and you should see your music file for the ipod appear, this should be the only file that you see, everything else should be deleted.
    6. go to your music library and check only the songs that you want to load into your ipod. Double click on each song to make sure that they all play.
    If you find a song that does not play you should be asked to authorize it, don't waste your time that did not solve the issue for me, instead cancel to authorize the song and then delete the song and move it to recycle bin. Once the song is deleted a cloud should appear, click on the cloud and download the song again, when done, make sure the song plays and that it is checked.
    7.After you have made sure that all of the songs play and are checked, click on your ipod once more, located to the left, check the box  "sync only checked songs" then from the top select music. In the music window select "sync music' and then select "entire music Library"
    8. Go back to the left and click on the arrow in front of your ipod, you should see the music file, click on the music file and you should see all of your music being loaded to your ipod.
    9. When all of the music is done loading, eject your ipod by clicking on the arrow located after the battery symbol where your ipod appears on the left
    10. Turn on your ipod and scroll through your songs to make sure that the problem is resolved.
    Not sure if all of this was necessary but it worked for me.

  • IPod touch not working after 5.0.1iOS update

    It seems like a lot of people are having issues after the new 5.0.1iOS update. I want to share my frustration and what problems I'm facing. After the update my ipod won't sync properly. It freezes my computer and then my computer shuts down everytime I have my ipod connected to my computer. My music and apps on my iPod are like ghosts they are visible but do NOT work after being pressed. I tried resetting the ipod, same problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, same problem. There is only problems with my computer when the iPod is plugged into the computer and trying to update. I am so ANGRY because I love my iPod and I can't use it to listen to music or communicate with my family and friends. I hope Apple will help all of us soon and fix these HUGE bugs, and FAST.

    Have you tried the sandard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Retore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Ipod shuffle not working at all

    I bought an ipod shuffle earlier this year and it has been working extremely well up until yesterday. There is a problem with my ipod shuffle. When I try to play the shuffle, the error light appears, and when I hook it up to my computer, it registers the shuffle but doesn’t open in itunes. Is there some way that I can fix this problem?

  • Ipod shuffle not working

    Two weeks ago I bought (my first ipod) an ipod shuffle online and it is not working anymore. I didn't have any problems installing the software and downloading the music but after a week of using it my computer and the itunes just doesn't recognize the ipod at all. Everytime i plug the ipod in the USB the "autoplay" comes out but that's all and the orange light keeps blinking. Whenever I turn it on and try to play music the green and orange lights comes out and the ipod doesn't play at all. I can't even update or restore it, the updater always shows that it cannot mount the ipod. I have tried resetting and tried every advice that i found online but it didn't work. I am really really dissappointed and frustrated right now for the fact i just got it and it didn't last that long. I would appreciate any help.

    just for the record this is not an ipod shuffle forum.

  • Ipod won't work after trying to install Paid 2.0 update

    I bought the 2.0 update for my 16 gig ipod touch. After trying to install the update through itunes half way through the update it gave me the message "The ipod could not be restored. An Unknown error occured (6)." I tried to do a restore on the ipod it it does the same thing. Can anyone help? Now after paying for an update I have an ipod that doesn't work at all.
    I tried doing a restore using the old software on a different itunes library and get the same error message.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks Larry

    ok i have figured out how to fix this problem!! it is simple. make a new account on your computer. Now use the itunes on that account and just plug ur touch in and restore it. It will restore it to the software 1.1.4 . now just go back to your main account on ur computer and plug ur touch in once again and it will restore it to its original settings and sync all your songs and videos and the rest.
    I followed the above instructions. Let Itunes 7.7 set itself up on the new account and downloaded the update. The first attempt didnt work but the second attempt after I rebooted the PC I logged in on the new user and booted up Itunes.
    When that had finished faffing about I connected the USB cable into another USB port (above the one its just come out of if you get my drift) and it started extracting the software for Restore then it started prparing the ipod for for restore and then started uploading the software to the ipod in which it had not done it before. As I type it has just finished synching the ipod with my current Itunes library on my default windows account.
    I am running the update but will have to enter my contacts details again but hey thats no big deal.
    So I hope you all get yours to work.
    Cheers

  • Mail on iPod Touch not working after iCloud password change

    A few days ago, I was prompted to change the mail password for my iCloud account.  My iPad and MacBook mail were both successfully updated and then accessed.  When I tried my iPod, it said the password was incorrect.  I delted the account and added it again, but the account is still not accessble.
    After some research, I think my iPod is a second-generation model.  It was purchased two years ago this month, so I was disappointed to see that it cannot be updated to iSO 5.  Because I cannot have this upgrade, I cannot get the iCloud option in Settings which would help me out. I suspect this is the root of my mail problem.
    Is there any way to get my mail to work?

    Update:  I just spent some time with an on-line chat.  Turns out that when I switched to iCloud a few months ago, I missed an opportunity that started on May 1, 2012.
    For those of you who have not yet made the switch to iCloud, the paragraph below might help.  Please note that the Apple help said that I should use Firefox rather than Safari to access the site.  Crazy!  Why would an Apple Application not work.
    What if I just want to keep using my email on all my devices?
    As of May 1, you can choose to keep using your mail after MobileMe ends, even on devices that don’t meet the iCloud system requirements. Just go to me.com/move and select the option to keep using your email after MobileMe ends. Once you have completed this short process, your mail will continue to work on devices that don’t meet the iCloud requirements after MobileMe ends on June 30, 2012.
